Ben Lamm is more than a tech entrepreneur; he’s a future architect, constructing tomorrow’s realities.
The master of high-concept tech has gained attention from not just Silicon Valley – but some of the biggest names in sports and Hollywood.
Lamm is responsible for Chaotic Moon Studios, a software design and development company that pushed the boundaries of digital experiences. Even then, Lamm understood the power of blending tech with cultural relevance. Notably, talent agency WME saw the potential, investing in the company. The “lab” at Chaotic Moon was a breeding ground for experimental projects, a place where code met creativity.

None other than Bill Nye, the Science Guy himself, was an advisor to the company, adding a dose of scientific credibility and pop culture appeal to Hypergiant’s “lab” of innovation.
But perhaps Lamm’s most ambitious project to date is Colossal Biosciences, a company dedicated to the seemingly impossible: de-extinction. Imagine bringing back the woolly mammoth or the Tasmanian tiger. Numerous stars are backing Lamm’s exciting new project , including Tom Brady, Tiger Woods, and Paris Hilton, to name a few.
